She did, she did!

In Common Ground Teyla used a contraction. She said 'I'm' as in, "I'm not so sure, Ronon."

God, those Earth people (and Ronon) are having a bad effect on her, aren't they?

As for the episode itself, oh yeah, loved it. A couple of niggles but mostly love.

This season as a whole has been really enjoyable so far. Not a single dud episode (in that I won't bother to re-watch) in the lot, including last week's Elizabeth-centric one The Real World. But then I thought Torri's performance was excellent in it, as was Joe's in Common Ground and Jason's in Sateda. David's Rodney-centric episode is next (am looking forward to that one as much as I was Common Ground), and I have no doubt he'll be great in it. But. Where's Teyla's episode?

And is it really bad of me to admit that I'm really not bothered if there's a Beckett-centred episode? I dunno. I enjoyed Carson in Irresistible but mostly I'm rather meh when it comes to Beckett. Pity, because from what I've seen of the actor he's a nice bloke who comes across well on a personal level.

Hmm, yes, good point about Misbegotten. I was thinking of it as a 'team' episode, rather than a Beckett-episode, perhaps because there were more 'B' stories going on (the Weir at Stargate Command subplot, and what to do with the hive ship subplot) than with either Sateda or Common Ground.

Actually, if Misbegotten is the Beckett episode then I'm fine with that, as the episode held my interest in a way that Poisoning the Well, for example, didn't. Although I liked Carson more then than now. Sadly.
